BlindRonin said:. Yes you can rent a spring compressor, but They are almost as dangerous as cutting the springs. lol
No offense, but that's bullshit. I use a spring compressor kit all the time (4 u bolts, 4 coil clamps and 2 huge bolts and nuts) and as long as you're not an idiot, it's perfectly safe.
If I ran to a shop everytime I needed something done.....
I don't mean to sound like an asshole but, if you can't handle changing some coil springs, then you're driving the wrong car.
Some people could accidentally kill themselves with a butter knife, but it doesn't make the butter knife unsafe.
